Why
Speed dropped 21%: clear fatigue, a couple of reps left. The target was 2 reps left and the estimate landed on it, so the weight holds.

Point your phone at the rack. CernoFit times every rep, notices when you slow down, and estimates how many more reps you could have done. Lifters call that number reps in reserve, or RIR. Then it writes your next set from what actually happened, not from a guess.

Follow one example set from what the camera sees to what you lift next.

How much you slowed down becomes a range of reps you had left (reps in reserve), with a stated confidence. Purple numbers are things it worked out.

Decided

This set: 310 lbs × 5

310 lbs × 5

Next set: same weight.

The estimate matches the target of 2 reps left.

When the estimate says you had room, the next set gets heavier. When it says you were over, the weight holds. One line of why, every time.

Weights that adjust

Your weight follows your effort.

Nine weeks of back squat in a made-up example plan. The weight goes up only when your estimated effort showed you had room, and it waits until a lighter “deload” week is over. Week four of each wave is that deload week: the weight holds and the effort eases off.

Who this is for

For lifters who push hard sets, at any level.

It matters most in the last few reps of a hard set. If you always stop with plenty left, a simple log is enough. If your sets end in a grind and you still write “2 reps left” in your notes, this is the missing piece.
